A Retrospect......

Dedicated to d Awesome Five....

Date:A fine evening in March
Venue:Nigdi...Bhel chowk..

twas jus another day...or rather another evening....the long hours of r training was taking its toll...not dat v wer learning anytng in dotnet or java....but d very fact dat v were sittng there d whole day itself was 2 tiring...n this very evening v hardly had anything 2 do...in fact nothing 2 do.....so v ended up sittng on d front steps of dis shoping mall....

as usual sebu was busy at sify iway.....with dat big knapsack of his full of som papersgod alone knew wat he did there...(v havnt been able 2 figure out yet)
but midhun praveen n me being jobless had nothing better than gaping at som gals walkng up n down d road...so v sat there talkng abt d nothings in d world....talkng abt d many things in d world which made no sense n which hardly matters...abt d hard day ahead..abt d hot gals they c at kanbay...abt dinner 4 d nitewell d topics cud go on endless....
n v suddenly realise dat twas past 10 whn sebu (being chuckd out of iway) comes n sits with us...

hmmm...so wat next....nearly all d shops thr hav closed...very few ppl out on d roads too....jus d dim street lites n v on d steps....d singer in sebu is aroused by d romantic ambience as he starts off "Sugamane nilavee...."for a second v r lik.."WaT?????????????"....but then b4 i get any time to think further i join him..praveen n midhun r a bit hesitant n embaressed 2 i guess...cud b bcoz they cant sing as greatly as me n sebu....but anyway after som tim evn they overcom their inhibitions...midhun as usual takes a lil' longer though....

n then d nite begins...as v continue one song aftr d next...in every pitch...in every tone...in every language....cmon man who cares...coz v wer singing 4 ouselves...to ourselves...n v hardly cared wat d world thought....
but alas aneesh mathew thought differently...he parked d noisy ol' bike...came up 2 us n was lik..."wat do u guys think u r doin"
seems twas past midnite(so he said).....n dat ppl(esp gals) r supposd 2 b bak home by then...v dint hav much of a choice coz i was already on my way bak home........again on dat noisy bike...attracting all attention of d few on d road...

days passed...month passed...n very soon a year will pass...but something had made dat evening special...or rather memorable....coz it carried wth it a thousand melodies...of old friendship....
v hav all parted different ways....living r own lives in r own ways.....
but every night i walk past a closed shoppng mall in chennai i think "Some day v five r gonna sit here n sing again...some day v r gonna relive those old days.....yes someday......
